Everquest 2 Chains Of Eternity – Beta Registration Is Underway

Good old Everquest II. I remember moving from Ultima Online to Everquest back in the day and being blown away at the first person, 3D perspective and the amazing sound and graphics and the gameplay model. I remember thinking “what could anyone ever do top top this?”. I remember thinking I was witnessing the pinnacle of gaming.

Later, other MMORPG’s came out and started to take bits and pieces of the market away. Then Sony Online Entertainment announced Everquest II and a bunch of the people I worked with pissed themselves with giddy anticipation.

Here we are, 8 years later, and Sony Online Entertainment is about to drop its NINTH expansion.

Good lord, that’s a lot of code.

So here’s the deal. Where there’s a game, there’s a beta test. Where there’s a beta, there’s a need for tester and SOE is asking players to answer the call and help them get this new expansion – which will feature level increases, prestige abilities, adornments that become more powerful with players’ characters, and a new level cap of 95 – ready for release.

In addition to the features already listed,the content in this expansion will feature two overland zones in the spirit realm to explore, as well as new dungeons and quests; additionally, exclusive new in-game items will be debuted and will only be available with this expansion.
